Fault Codes
The GPD 506/P5 and GPD 515/G5 inverters can store up to (4) faults.
The GPD 515/G5 inverter has a fault trace that saves the drive status
at the time of the fault, and a fault history indicating elapsed time of
the stored faults.
The fault codes can be grouped into (3) categories:
Major Fault - Motor coasts to a stop, the fault is displayed on the
digital operator, and the fault relay is activated.
Minor Fault - Operation continues and the fault flashes on the
digital operator. The fault relay does not activate.
Parameter Setting Error - Inverter can’t run. The fault is
displayed on the digital operator, and the fault relay is not activated.
A complete list of fault codes may be found in the appendix.

Possible Cause(s): Single phase condition on the input, low input voltage at L1, L2, and L3.
Corrective Action: Check the three phase input voltage, verify L2-05 for 515/G5 units.
Possible Cause(s): External load connected pulling down the inverter power supplies.
Corrective Action: Repair or replace the power/gate drive board.
Fault Codes
Major Fault - Motor coasts to a stop, the fault is displayed on the digital

This fault only applies to 230V units 18kW ~ 75kW , 460V units 22kW ~ 160kW and
600V units 30kW ~ 160kW .
Possible Cause(s): Contacts on contactor are dirty, contactor does not function mechanically.
Corrective Action: Check the contactor, check the ribbon cable from the control board to the
gate drive board.
Possible Cause(s): High input voltage at L1, L2, and L3. The deceleration time is set too
short. Power factor correction capacitors are being used on the input to the inverter.
Corrective Action: Check the input circuit, verify the program parameters, add a braking
resistor, remove the power factor correction capacitors.

Possible Cause(s): Shorted inverter output phase to phase, shorted motor, locked rotor.
Corrective Action: Remove the motor and run the inverter without the motor. Check the
motor for a phase to phase short. Check the inverter for a phase to phase short at the output.
Possible Cause(s): Motor lead shorted to ground, DCCT defective.
Corrective Action: Remove the motor and run the inverter without the motor. Check the
